Summary: We stayed three nights and toured several distilleries in the area such as angel’s envy and buffalo trace. Our accommodations were exceptional. The home was well stocked, spacious enough for the four of us and the furnishings were comfortable and modern. The hosts were readily available for any issues or questions. Excellent place to stay!

Summary: Everything about our getaway was perfect. We arrived to the house around 9 and the keyless entry was flawless. The house was exactly as the pictures described and was perfect for two couples. The decor of the home was nicely created and felt very homey. We spent most of our time on the Bourbon Trail and loved the location so we could get to where we were going in about 30 to 45 minutes. Buffalo Trace was a daily stop and was a 30 minute drive. We’d definitely recommend this home.

Summary: What a beautiful property. Love the dark makeup towels provided and the mixed drink suggestion. The convenience was great. In between Louisville and Lexington. Nice small town to explore. Would definitely go again. Thanks for experience.

Summary: The Oak is on the bottom floor of a 2 story STR. It was very clean, with a spacious and well-stocked kitchen and dining area. The living room was cozy as were the 2 bedrooms. This is a very old building and we could hear the people above us enjoying themselves when we were in the living room. This property is an easy walk to downtown and restaurants. It is also right next door to a pizza shop and convenience store. We did need to contact management over a few, small issues that were very quickly addressed and corrected.

Summary: Loved this stay - We took a trip to celebrate a couple of 30th birthday's on the Bourbon Tour and this was the perfect house for it. Very great location to the distilleries, restaurants, and coffee shops. The place was very clean and beautifully updated. The managers stayed in contact with us during our stay, but we never needed anything as it was ready for us when we arrived!

Summary: This property was a great homebase for our stops on the Bourbon Trail. Nicely remodeled and well appointed with all the basics. Neighborhood can be occasionally loud as the fire station is a block away.
